Requirements

• Litigation Interest: A strong desire to master the "nuts and bolts" of construction—you must be comfortable learning how buildings are built and where they fail.
• Writing Skills: Exceptional research and writing skills are required for handling the dense motion practice characteristic of construction law.
• Organization: Ability to thrive in a high-volume environment where cases involve dozens of parties and thousands of pages of technical documents.
• Travel: Willingness to attend on-site inspections and property "walk-throughs" with experts as needed.

Preferred Skills (But Not Required)
